--- toc_priority: 69 toc_title: Statistics --- # Functions for Working with Statistics {#functions-for-working-with-statistics} # proportionsZTest {#proportionsztest} Applies proportion z-test to samples from two populations (X and Y). The alternative is 'two-sided'. **Syntax** ``` sql proportionsZTest(successes_x, successes_y, trials_x, trials_y, significance_level, usevar) ``` **Arguments** - `successes_x` — The number of successes for X in trials. - `successes_y` — The number of successes for X in trials. - `trials_x` — The number of trials for X. - `trials_y` — The number of trials for Y. - `significance_level` - `usevar` - It can be `'pooled'` or `'unpooled'`. - `'pooled'` - The variance of the two populations are assumed to be equal. - `'unpooled'` - The assumption of equal variances is dropped. **Returned value** - A tuple with the (z-statistic, p-value, confidence-interval-lower, confidence-interval-upper). Type: [Tuple](../../sql-reference/data-types/tuple.md). **Example** Query: ``` sql SELECT proportionsZTest(10, 11, 100, 101, 0.95, 'unpooled'); ``` Result: ``` text (-0.20656724435948853,0.8363478437079654,-0.09345975390115283,0.07563797172293502) ```
